Funded Activity Summary

Job Scheduling Strategies for General-Purpose High-Performance Computing Clusters. High-performance computing is moving away from specialised platforms to cheaper clusters and it is expected that clusters will become the mainstream computing platforms for general-purpose applications. One major problem that hinders the application of clusters is the lack of effective scheduling facilities to efficiently allocate system resources to meet the performance requirements of various applications. We shall design a new and innovative job scheduling system to solve this problem. The emphasis will be on practical designs in the context of real operating systems. The successful completion of this research will greatly promote a wide application of clusters.
